Depuis que Virginie a obtenu le septieme accessit
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Since Virginie Received the Seventh Honorable Mention), a satirical lithograph by Honore Daumier, published in the French periodical Le Charivari on April 18, 1844, humorously critiques the societal expectations of gender roles, particularly towards women with intellectual pursuits beyond housework and childcare. The image depicts a disgruntled husband, dressed as a captain of the National Guard, sorting laundry on a Saturday, while his wife looks on, amused. The caption reads, "Ever since Virginie received the seventh honorable mention for poetry at the Academie Francaise, it is I...me a captain of the National Guard...who must sort the washing every Saturday to give to the laundress... and I do it because if I don't, my wife will wring me out!" The print is part of Daumier's series "Les Bas-bleus," which targeted the "bluestockings" or intellectual women of the time. The husband's annoyance and the division of labor in the household are metaphors for the societal pressure on women to prioritize domestic duties over intellectual pursuits. The image, with its humorous and satirical tone, highlights the frustrations and annoyances of both the husband and the wife, while also critiquing the gender roles of the time. The print is an important piece of 19th-century art and social commentary, and is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. It showcases Honore Daumier's skill as a lithographer and his ability to use humor to critique societal norms. The image continues to resonate today, as it sheds light on the ongoing debate about gender roles and equality in domestic and intellectual spheres.
